For our final month, we focus on Perseverance — not giving up, even when something is hard. Families can encourage children to keep working toward end-of-year goals. Ask your child: “What is something you kept trying at until you succeeded?”
At the end of the month, one student from each classroom will be recognized at our school assembly for showing perseverance.
As we gear up for the final day of the school year, we want to share important information about our cafeteria lunch service on Friday, June 11. Students will have a choice between two entrées:
PB&J Entrée
Yogurt Entrée
If you would like to order a lunch for your student, families may use the form below. Lunches must be picked up at the cafeteria, and all orders are due by Friday, June 5.
Please note the following CDE requirements:
All meals will be served on trays — no “grab & go” options will be available.
Meals must be eaten on campus — school‑provided meals may not be taken home or off‑site.
⏰ Reminder: School will dismiss at 12:00 PM (noon) on June 11.
As we head into summer, we are excited to share the 2026 Summer Reading Lists for students in grades TK–5. The lists are designed to feature fun summer reading and award winning books while maintaining diversity in author identity, character representation, cultural perspectives, and themes. We want to continue to encourage joyful reading, support literacy development, and provide families with engaging book options across a variety of interests and reading levels.
Families and staff are invited to attend an upcoming California Department of Education free webinar titled “AI in Education: Using AI Responsibly Without Losing Student Thinking” on Tuesday, May 26, from 4:00–5:00 p.m.
The webinar will feature Torrance Unified student speakers, district leadership, and practical strategies for using AI responsibly while keeping student learning, curiosity, and critical thinking at the center. Participants will also explore how students are currently using AI and gain helpful classroom and family resources, including AI usage examples and tools.
